Accepting and Coping with Loss, Grief, and Bereavement. How to Learn to Enjoy Life Again

It is impossible to live without losses and bereavements, but when misfortune strikes us, we find ourselves completely unprepared for it. The death of a loved one, severe illness, failures in business or career — such events sometimes shake us to the core, depriving us of the joy of life, and sometimes life loses its meaning altogether. How can we find the strength to move forward in such situations and learn to see the good in life? 

Aleksandr Ryazantsev, a practicing psychologist with 30 years of experience, clearly explains each stage of experiencing and accepting losses. He offers simple and effective advice: how to relate to your losses, what can be done in various situations, how to react, how to adjust your mindset, and how to learn to love your changed life. His methodology is based on extensive 20-year research and work as a psychologist with the relatives of sailors who died on the submarine 'Kursk'. The book includes a clear authorial algorithm that will help you understand how exactly losses affect the quality of your life.
